Peggy Swanson

With great sadness we wish to announce the passing of our mom, Anna Permilla “Peggy” Swanson. She passed away peacefully on March 7, 2021 in Outlook, SK. She will be remembered by her daughters, Judy (Chester) Mikulcik and Linda (Ray) Motilaga; sons, Larry (Linda) Swanson and Bill (Lorna) Swanson; granddaughters, Lorrie (Neil) Burrell, Raylynn Motilaga, Leisa Motilaga, Dennise (Dwayne) Kerr, and Angela (Dan) Mielhausen; grandsons, Tony (Dawn) Mikulcik, Roy Swanson, and Steven (Krista) Swanson; as well as numerous great-grandchildren and great-great-grandchildren. She was born at Galilee (on the farm) on July 27, 1924. Peggy began her life on her parent’s farm in Galilee, SK. On June 2, 1943 she married Roy Swanson of Crane Valley. They settled in Regina to begin their life together. Once Roy returned from the Army, he became an Elevator Agent for Sask Pool and Glenside was one of his many posts. Peggy loved to cook and bake, and she often supplied food for local events. She worked for the United Church Camp as a head cook for many years. Peggy also loved to garden and treasured the apples every fall. She is remembered for her sweet love of music and spread her ballads like her homemade apple butter. This grandma ...never ever missed a birthday. After Roy’s retirement, they moved to Moose Jaw, their old stompin’ grounds. On September 20, 1998, Roy passed away. Peggy stayed in Moose Jaw for several years before moving to Outlook, where she remained until her passing. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her. A Private Family Graveside Service will be held in Crane Valley at a later date. As an expression of sympathy, donations to Outlook & District Pioneer Home, 500 Semple St, Outlook, SK, S0L 2N0, would be greatly appreciated. In living memory of Peggy, a memorial planting will be made by Jones-Parkview Funeral Services.
